Suggested Applications

EBECRYL® 4381 is designed for use in the formulation of UV/EB energycurable coatings and primers for application by roller coating, spraying and curtain coating on wood, cork and furniture. Formulations based on EBECRYL® 4381 are recommended for: UV/EB cured roller coated wood primers and coatings. The actual properties of UV/EB energy cured products also depend on the selection of other formulation components such as reactive diluents,additives and photo initiators.

Storage & Handling

Storage and Handling
Recommended storage temperature: 4°C to 40°C. Care should be taken not to expose the product to high temperature conditions, direct sunlight, ignition sources, oxidizing agents, alkalis oracids. This might cause uncontrollable polymerization of the productwith the generation of heat. Storage and handling should be in stainless steel, amber glass, amber polyethylene or baked phenolic lined containers. Procedures that remove or displace oxygen from the material should be avoided. Do not store this material under an oxygen free atmosphere. Dry air is recommended to displace material removed from the container. Wash thoroughly after handling. Keep container tightly closed. Use with adequate ventilation. See the SDS for the recommended storage temperature range for additional information on the safe handling of acrylates.
